Vengeful Thoughts 报复的想法



It’s really alright to have vengeful thoughts when someone pisses you off! It’s normal! Go ahead, crack your head and think of how you can piss him or her back! I Googled “vengeful” and this definition came up:  seeking to harm someone in return for a perceived injury. The important words here are ‘perceived injury’. Did Siti harm me? Nope! It’s just that I had a plan, and I was trying to sell her my plan, but she did not buy it. It’s my pride that she stepped on! And I REALLY HATE PEOPLE WHO MESS UP MY PLANS!!! But I am surprised how my thoughts have changed over the years. As a child and in my teenage years, I could be maligned, and my reaction would be to just sulk and to be quiet about it. I would bottle all the pain and the hurt inside of me, and I would fume! Throughout my young adult years, I would still be quiet about it, and I would put up a smiling face. In my mid-adult years, I had to do all these, and worst still, I would (had to?) continue to butter the enemy. I never entertained vengeful thoughts, and I always try to find a way to escape (either by denial or by harbouring suicidal thoughts). I kept all the pain inside of me, and I seldom let it show. I’ll be honest with you. It is my belief that all my quiet brought me to where I am today.
如果有人惹你生气,你开始有复仇​​的想法,这是理所当然的!正常的呀! 动动脑筋,你要怎么做才能惹恼他?! 要报仇呀!!! 我用谷歌搜索“复仇”这个定义:试图报复给你非实际伤害的某人。 这里重要的词是’非实际的伤害’。 西蒂伤害我了吗? 没有啦! 我有一个计划, 我鼓励她接受我的计划,但她不肯配合。 ‘我是主人她是仆’。 她不肯接受我主人的点子, 等于踩到我的自尊! 我最讨厌阻挡我的计划的人! 说实在, 我的想法、 反应多年来产生了变化, 我感到惊讶。 同年和青春期的时候,我如果被人诽谤, 我的反应是生气在心里,但保持沉默。 我会把痛苦和伤害放进我内心深处。 在二十岁的成年期间, 我仍然保持沉默, 而且我会竖起一张笑脸。 在我三十、 四十岁成年期间, 我不仅做这些, 更糟糕的是: 我会(不得不)继续在敌人面前竖起一张笑脸。 我从来没有, 也不会接受有复仇​​的想法在我的脑里头, 我只会试图找一种逃避的方法 (比如说否认或隐瞒自杀念头)。我把所有的痛苦都埋进我的内心里,很少让痛苦和悲伤显示出来。 我跟你说实话: 我相信我有今天大部分是应为我的这份安静。


I’m hopping mad! Who does she think she is? She is just a maid, for goodness sake! How dare she come and mess with my plans? The equation is simple: I say it, she does it. She is a maid!!! Doesn’t she know that she is powerless, and I being her employer, she is at my mercy?! All sorts of thoughts raced through my head:

气死我了! 她以为她是谁? 她只是一个女佣! 她算什么敢来搞乱我的计划?! 生活道理很简单:我说,她做。 她是一个女佣罢了!!! 难道她不知道她是多么无能为力? 我是她的雇主, 她如果没有巴结我, 她肯定不好过! 每个人都知道呀! 各种各样的想法贯穿我的脑海里:


I’m going to stop sponsoring her face wash, mouth wash, hair conditioners, tooth floss, perfume, perfumed talc, sanitary pads, vitamin pills and all those frivolous what-nots! It is my duty as her employer to give her the basic necessities only. This means (1) soap, (2) shampoo, (3) toothpaste and (4) toothbrush. Turn you into an ugly duckling! That ought to teach her who is Boss!

我不会再赞助她的洗面奶、 漱口水、 护发素、 牙线、 香水、 香水爽身粉、 卫生巾、 维生素丸等等, 所有奢侈品! 作为她的雇主,我有义务给她基本的必需品: (一)肥皂、 (二)洗发剂、 (三)牙膏和(四)牙刷。 把她变成一只丑小鸭! 教训教训她!


I’m going to make her work non-stop, from the time she wakes up until her bedtime. Why should I let her rest in the afternoons, just because the sun is terribly hot?! Maid Alisha works non-stop, why should Princess Maid Siti have her siesta? I’ll do that! Make her work her butt off! That ought to teach her who is Boss!

从她醒来到她睡觉时间, 我会叫她不停地工作。 为什么下午我要让她在休息? 太阳太热太猛, 那又怎么样?! 关我什么事? 隔壁女佣爱丽丝是不停地工作, 为什么公主女佣西蒂下午要休息? 好, 就这么办! 让她拼命工作!教训教训她!


I swear I’m never going to order food delivery again, and I’m not going to allow my family to eat packet food ever again!!! I’ll force her to cook all 3 meals, and for good measure, I’ll even tell her she has to prepare afternoon snacks for us. I’m going to throw away all the disposable crockery and cutlery, and we will all use ceramic plates and metal cutlery. Let her cook, cook, cook, wash, wash, wash non-stop!!! Just like Maid Alisha!!! That ought to teach her who is Boss!

我发誓,我从此不会再订购外卖, 而且我会叫家人不要吃外面的饭! 我会强迫西蒂三餐都要煮, 连下午点心也要家里煮的。 我会把所有一次性餐具和餐具扔掉, 甚至我吃一片饼干我都会用陶瓷盘子和金属餐具。 让她做饭,做饭,做饭,洗盘,洗盘,洗盘, 洗不停!就像隔壁女佣爱丽丝! 教训教训她!


I’ll just take her back to the agency again and scare her into obedience. She’s used up all her chances anyway! The agency won’t cut her some slack this time, right?! Where got maid get sent back to agency, then come back, then get sent back to agency again, then come back again? Agency so free meh?! So if she still wants to work in Singapore, she will come back here 100% docile and obedient.

我会再次带她送回经纪人那儿! 反正她已经耗尽了她所有的机会, 经纪人这一次不会再饶了她,对吧?! 有女佣被送回经纪人那儿,再回来,再送去经纪人那儿, 再回来吗?不可能! 经纪人一定会痛骂她的! 如果西蒂仍想在新加坡工作,她回到这里肯定会百分百顺从我这位雇主。 好, 让经纪人帮我调教她! 教训教训她!

 


LOL! What?! You think just because I go to the temple, and I practice Feng Shui, and I do animal rescue, and I go do volunteer work in old folks home, it means I don’t have vengeful thoughts? How can that be?! 🙏 Om.

哈哈哈! 你以为我去寺庙拜佛, 我练风水, 我做动物救援, 我去老人家做志愿者工作,这意味着我没有复仇的想法吗? 这哪里有可能?!  🙏 菩萨保佑。
